Skills

Sword Dive

Damien leaps to the air and dives diagonally downwards for 50% damage and 1 Stigma charge (100% damage (or 1 Stigma charge if you miraculously survived) for 2nd Part).

Rush

Damien super knockbacks you for 40% damage and 1 Stigma charge. For 2nd Part, the dash will have a way lower delay (kneel down to dodge)

Sword Summon

Throughout the battle, there will be a stalker sword hitting anyone for 15% damage. If the sword targets a certain spot and lands there, it creates an aura area attack hitting 90% damage every 1 second for about 10 seconds.

Demon bite

Summons demon at certain areas and bites them for 100% damage

Dropping firebombs

Damien leaps up and drops firebombs that deal 90% damage.

(2nd Part) Dash

Damien dashes, creating a 3 lined area that strikes for 100% damage in anyone who is in that area when it activates.

(2nd Part) Area damage

There will be a blue orb following players, hitting 5% every second. Also your potion's efficiency -90% and your final damage -90%.

(2nd Part) Fire bullets

Damien fires bullets to the left and right in 2 rows, touching the fire bullet causes 50% damage and 1 Stigma charge.

(2nd Part) World Tree Collapse

Everyone gets mushed away from Damian and forced into petrification mode (spam left, right arrow keys alternatingly to release), then 5 billion damage must be dealt for the skill to be ineffective. If failed, everyone gets inflicted by 200% damage.

Stigma Charge

Stigma charge can be caused by certain Damien skill or simply overtime. The overtime charge inflicted is based on 1 of the following condition (see the weather effect on the map for that instantaneous time's condition, charge is applied after the top right UI shows "Time for next charge: 00 sec")

Random player
Most aggressive player
Least aggressive player
Most charges
Least charges

Charges can be lifted up by going to a summoned Altar and pressing and holding NPC Chat button for 3 seconds uninterrupted (you can move around to dodge so long as you are still touching the Altar and you sre still holding down the N button). Alternatively, you can transfer the charge to an alive party member by treating him/her as an altar but note that he/she will receive the charges (if it exceeds 7 then he/she will instantly die, whoops).

Note: The Skill/Function that is hotkeyed to N button will be disabled, so change the hotkey.

You will instantly die when you accumulated 7 Stigma charges (1 smaller stalker sword will be summoned with the exact same properties). If 7 deaths due to this is caused, Damien reaches its stronger (2nd Part) state earlier than 30% HP left.
